Can someone please explain this Mets-themed PostSecret?

I don’t get it.

If it wasn’t urine, what was it?

Quote from Collins–4/21

“I watched on every TV set in the clubhouse. They're charging me for new carpeting in a couple of spots.”

I know how you feel, Terry.

This is the lede to a real NY Daily News article

Blah blah blah blah rain blah blah blah Niese blah blah Astros blah blah Mets got spanked. Blah blah, 6-1. We really don't know what else to tell you about this one.

Was Brad Emaus given enough time?

The Mets pulled the plug on the Brad Emaus experiment today, designating the Rule 5 draft pick for assignment. This means he’ll be offered back to the Toronto Blue Jays, then put on waivers, allowing any team to claim him.

I think the Mets may have made the move a little too quickly. What do you think?

Quote from Collins

“Everybody is as frustrated in this room as I am, but we've been in every single game but one. The fight is still there, but we've got to stop making mistakes.”

Today in non-news

There’s ‘growing suspicion’ that the Mets will look to trade veterans such as Carlos Beltran, Jose Reyes and Francisco Rodriguez if they are not contending midseason. Plus, Mike Pelfrey could find himself on the block.

-MLBTR, paraphrasing Jon Heyman

No, really?
